This self-balancing wheelchair can capture smooth Steadicam shots
Caerus Technology, founded by filmmaker Chris Lynch, just dropped the world's first wheelchair-mounted camera system.
Built for the Genny Zero self-balancing wheelchair, it's made to capture smooth Steadicam shots and is backed by big names like RED and DJI.
You can choose between 3 models
You get three options: Vista (for indoor/outdoor shoots with a 6km wireless range), Studio (handles heavy indoor gear), and Rover (geared for outdoor interviews with lighting, LiveU, and teleprompter support).
